how to make meringue?

a) A good mixer (hand mixer also good to go :D)

b) 5 egg whites

c) 130 grams of sugar

d) salt or cream of tartar

First of all, use a bowl which is a grease free.

Place your bowl with the egg whites in. Switch on your mixer (I use hand mixer)

to whip the egg whites. Make sure it is on medium speed. - Not too fast, not too slow!

Add in salt or cream of tartar. (it acts like a chemical agent to foam the egg whites)

After 3-5 minutes, the egg whites starts foamy. Add in your sugar.

Increase the speed to high speed to make the batter thicken even better.

It might takes for another 5-7 minutes.

It will form softpeak like this. (see the picture above)

Now, you can prepare a tray with a parchment paper.

Draw a circle line on the parchment paper and pour your meringue batter into that shape.

Bake in the oven for 20-30 minutes on 150 degrees celcius.

You could enjoy this with your chocolate sauce or with your ice cream as the crumbs.
